I've listed this article for peer review because I, along with the other editors at the Spotlight, have drastically improved this article and hope to put it forward for GA status by Saturday have put it forward for GA status it has been promoted to GA status. We would like to know what we can improve so we can, well, improve it! Thanks...... Dendodge .. Talk^Help 22:57, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

Comments from Hoziron (talk · contribs):

• Devote some space to detailing the central events of Kristallnacht itself. Currently we only summarize them within the article header.
• The term "Reichspogromnacht" is nearly unknown in English. "Kristallnacht" is used. The given sources do not convince me that "Reichspogromnacht" is "the preferred term" even in German. Google estimates that, in German, it's about as common as "Kristallnacht".
• Kristallnacht caused responses and commemorations particularly among Jews and Jewish organizations.
• The caption for the synagogue restoration plaque takes up a lot of space.

Responses and reactions by Dendodge (talk · contribs)

•  Doing... the first one
•  Done I couldn't find anything on the preferred term either, I've removed it
•  Doing... the third, just need a couple of sources and some more info
•  Not done the last. While it is larger than it should be, it is necessary to indicate the emotional response of Jewish citizens. If you can find a better way of using the caption, I will certainly consider it...... Dendodge .. Talk^Help 11:31, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
